The Last Visit #FreeEbook

Winner of the Honorable Mention Award in the 2011 Warren Adler Short Story Contest, “The Last Visit” is based on the author’s final visit with her 92-year-old father in hospice care.

An excerpt from the author’s memoir, “The Box of Daughter,” follows the story. After growing up in a dysfunctional family and caregiving for her elderly parents for more than seven years, the author set foot on a quest to raise her self-esteem, overcome her negative conditioning, and create a life that is truly her own.

“Fresh, bold, and inspiring.”
